“Whenever the weather in the winter is good, people come down,” he says. “Our sales are up from last year. A lot of it is weather driven."

Trish Fairbairn, owner of The Comfort Zone in Ocean Grove, says that she has also seen a surge in sales for some products. However, she also said that items like scarves, fuzzy socks and warm slippers are not selling as well as other items.

Rebecca Cavanaugh, of the Ocean Grove Chamber of Commerce, says that the mild temperatures delayed some shopping at first, because “you can't really embrace Christmas in 70 degrees.”

But she adds that “towards the end [of December] it got very busy, very hectic.”

Golf courses around the Jersey Shore are also reporting record profits this year. Many courses are still planning to stay open in January.

Temperatures for Christmas Eve are expected to reach temperatures in the low-70s.
